Ronald Henson, LCPC

Psychotherapist
IL
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor providing virtual therapy for adults navigating stress, anxiety, ADHD-related challenges, life transitions, and relationship concerns. My approach is grounded in Reality Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy, with a focus on helping you better understand yourself and make meaningful, sustainable changes. In our work together, the focus is not on fixing you, but on understanding the patterns, experiences, and pressures that have shaped where you are now. From there, we can begin identifying what is within your control and what changes feel both realistic and worthwhile. I work with individuals who often feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of their next step, even when things appear “fine” on the surface. Therapy becomes a space to slow things down, gain clarity, and reconnect with what actually matters to you. My goal is to provide a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported while also being gently challenged when needed. Change does not come from pressure. It comes from awareness, ownership, and taking steps that align with the life you want to build.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Starting therapy can feel uncertain, especially if you are not sure what to expect or if this is the right fit for you. You do not need to have everything figured out before beginning. My approach is collaborative and grounded in helping you make sense of what you are experiencing rather than jumping straight into solutions. We will spend time understanding what is working, what is not, and what feels most important to you right now. I tend to be more direct than passive, while still keeping the space supportive and respectful. That means I will ask questions, offer observations, and help you look at patterns that may not always be obvious. At the same time, you set the pace. There is no pressure to share more than you are ready for. Therapy with me is not about quick fixes or surface-level advice. It is about building awareness, strengthening your ability to make intentional choices, and working toward changes that actually hold over time. If you are looking for a space where you can be honest, reflect on what is going on beneath the surface, and start moving in a clearer direction, this may be a good fit.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Our work usually begins with an initial session focused on understanding what brings you in, what you have already tried, and what you want to be different moving forward. You do not need to have clear goals yet. We can figure that out together. From there, sessions tend to focus on identifying patterns in your thoughts, behaviors, and relationships. We will look at how these patterns developed, how they are currently impacting you, and what options you have for responding differently. As we continue, the process becomes more focused on applying what you are learning in real situations. This might include exploring decisions you are facing, working through specific challenges, or practicing new ways of responding to situations that tend to repeat. Throughout the process, we will check in on what is working and adjust as needed. Therapy is not meant to feel static or unclear. The goal is for you to leave sessions with a better understanding of yourself and a clearer sense of direction, even if everything is not fully resolved yet.
